Crazy Nights Tour
Encyclopedia
The Crazy Nights Tour was a concert tour by Kiss
. It began in Jackson, Mississippi, marking the second time that a major recording act had started a tour in that city. (Maze
being the first). The night before the Jackson show, bassist Gene Simmons
played DJ on local rock and roll station Z106. It was the first time Kiss toured Japan
since the Alive II Tour
in 1978. The tour marked Eric Carr
's first and only trip to Japan. Kiss also co-headlined the Monsters of Rock festival with Iron Maiden
. The tour was met with unenthusiastic reviews, the first complaint being the use of "Love Gun" as the opening number. Another complaint was the unusually high number of Crazy Nights songs in the setlist, most of which did not come off well live. One upside was the start of the trend of the band playing more songs from their musical heyday of the 70's, a trend which started with the Monsters of Rock festival at the end leg of the tour. Ted Nugent opened the show, touring behind Little Miss Dangerous.
"White Christmas" and "Tears Are Falling
" were played sometimes as encores during the tour replacing "Strutter."
